Sunday September 04, 2005 18:46 by Tommy Donnellan - Shell to Sea
Never mind the bollocks heading, here's the real Mc Coy. From Monday to Friday, Galway Shell to Sea activists have been outside Lynch's Castle in Shop Street for six hours daily (yesterday's stint was eight hours) leafleting the pedestrians on the plight of the Rossport Five, taking petition signatures - close to 11,000 so far and selling at cost or with an extra fifty cents added, handsome A5 size postcards to be sent to the Five in Cloverhill prison - an average of 125 are sold daily.
